So we managed to time our weekend yardwork around the rain pretty well. I got the mowing done before the rain started yesterday. And it stopped by last night so we were able to get out this AM and pull weeds out of the still-wet soil. Exhausting, of course, but we made a good start. Rewarded ourselves with brunch at Watts. Everything was excellent but the standout was definitely the churros y chocolaté. The churros were crispy, airy, cinnamony. And the choco sauce was to die -- like a thin ganache. So good.
I was pretty wiped out so I mostly lazed around the house while Sarah was at the station. Did manage to knock out a quick CD review. Altho it was later in coming on this year, we've definitely reached that part of the year where new discs are arriving at the station at a very slow pace (if at all). So I'm hoping to stretch the few I have left to have 1 or 2 new things to add every week.
We wanted to go to Rockwood Filling Station for dinner but they were closed. Instead, we went up to Twisted Noodles. Service was quite good (which, if you've ever read the Chowhound forum, you'll know that's not always the case) and the food was excellent. Spicier than we'd expected but super tasty.
Almost time for the big Sunday night o' reality TV: Design Star AND Next Food Network Star.
